It can be both. While clogged gutters are a common cause, we often find in Gilman City that improper roof slope or damaged drip edge can also lead to overflow, directing water behind the gutters and into your fascia. We'll inspect both your roof's edge and gutter system to find the true source and provide a fix that protects your home's foundation and siding.

Signs inside your home include water stains on ceilings or walls, peeling paint, or a musty smell in the attic. From the outside, you might see curling or buckling shingles. The underlayment is your roof's critical secondary water barrier. If it's compromised by wind-driven rain or ice dams—common here—water can seep into your roof deck and cause rot, mold, and structural damage that goes far beyond a simple leak.

We recommend materials built for thermal cycling and high moisture. For most homes in Gilman City, impact-resistant architectural asphalt shingles offer excellent durability against hail and wind. Proper attic ventilation is also crucial—it prevents heat and moisture buildup that can bake shingles in summer and cause ice dams in winter. We'll assess your home's specific needs to recommend the best, longest-lasting solution.
